Emotional dimensions of legal cultures in historical perspective Dagmar Ellerbrock and Sylvia Kesper-Biermann Does passion influence law making? Are senses part of the juridical process? Do emotions have anything at all to do with law?1 Law regulates emotional behavior and legal procedures often arouse emotions (Posner 1999). But are passions and emotions innately woven into the texture of law? This special issue argues that understanding the debates on, and concepts and perceptions of, emotions is essential to comprehending law in a funda- mental and multifaceted manner.2 Law and emotions share a complex, reciprocal relationship. Only recently have scholars started to explore their various interactions (Maroney 2005; Abrams and Keren 2007; Bandes and Blumenthal 2012) and emphasize the significance of emotions for deeper insights into juridical practices as well as into conceptions of justice. These studies follow a contemporary approach and aim at, among other things, a better understanding of or even improvement of current legal doctrine, juridical decision-making or policies. The results of this research are an important starting point. Their 1 Passions and emotions are not used here in a distinctive way. For a study of the historical semantics of these concepts, see Thomas Dixon (2003). 2 The contributions to this special issue were discussed in February 2014 at the international workshop »Recht und Gefühl: Zur historischen Rele- vanz einer konstitutiven Beziehung,« Ludwig-Maximilians-University, Munich. We would like to thank the Max Planck Institute for Human Development, Berlin, and the Historical Seminar, LMU Munich for funding, as well as the staff in both locations for reliable support in preparing and realizing the workshop. DOI: 10.4119/UNIBI/indi-v6-i2-145 ISSN 2191-6721 Ellerbrock and Kesper-Biermann, Introduction InterDisciplines 2 (2015) perceptions cannot be overrated, since they have proven that emotions are an important factor influencing the framework and notion of law as well as the application and legitimation of legal practices (Bandes 1999). The legal system, as regards its conceptual dimension and its actors— judges, lawyers, defendants and deponents, politicians and experts, citizens and public—is deeply intertwined with emotional norms, rules, experi- ences, and expectations. It has now been recognized, in contrast to former self-conceptions, that legal cultures are not an emotion-free, rational space, but an area deeply affected by emotions (Nussbaum 2008; Posner 1999). Consequently, a historical perspective is indispensable to fully understanding the dense connections between passions and law as well as the transformations these correlations have undergone over the last 200 years. Analyses of historical developments offer an opportunity to understand changing concepts, meanings, and actions over time. Current legal research meanwhile goes beyond the mere statement that »emotion is everywhere in law« (Abrams and Keren 2007, 2009) and explores its various manifestations and functions. This issue of Inter- Disciplines applies this understanding to historical contexts. To this end, emotions are understood as bio-social phenomena (Engelen et al. 2009; Scherer, Schorr, and Johnstone 2001; Hopkins et al. 2009; Chiao 2015). What does this mean? Grounded in the body and connected to innate processes of reactions, emotions are necessarily shaped by social interpre- tations and social interactions. Emotions in this sense combine affective, corporeal dimensions and socio-cultural elements (Ortony, Clore, and Collins 1999; Reddy 2001; Solomon 2003, 2004; Demmerling and Land- weer 2007) and bring together feelings based in the body with socio- cultural meanings (Frevert and Wulf 2012). It is the interplay between these distinct dimensions that constitutes emotions. Though the body- based dimension is an indispensable part of emotions, this issue focuses on the social facet of emotions, since this is the element that is variable in time and across cultures (Rosenwein 2002; Frevert 2013). 2 Ellerbrock and Kesper-Biermann, Introduction InterDisciplines 2 (2015) With reference to law, »all previous attempts to establish an exact defini- tion […] have reached no generally accepted agreement« (Otto 2011; Abrams and Keren 2007). This is partly due to the fact that several classifications (using different criteria) are possible and that these con- cepts have in addition changed over time. Objective law can be distin- guished from subjective rights, natural law from statute law, and positive law from customary law. Furthermore, legal areas have been divided into realms of public law, criminal law or private law. Though emotions matter in all these areas, they have as yet received varying levels of attention by (legal) historians. Their significance has recently been studied with regard to the mobilization of rights, notably during the second half of the 20th century and in conjunction with social movements (Abrams 2011). Since the 1970s, the expanding research on the history of human rights and on human rights activism also refers to emotions. Lynn Hunt has argued that the very existence of human rights »depends on emotions as much as on reason« and traces their genesis, based on changing emotional regimes, back to the second half of the 18th century (Hunt 2008). Whereas emotions have entered international history in general and the history of international relations in particular, for exam- ple with regard to fear (Bormann, Freiberger, and Michel 2010; Ariffin 2015), international law has seldom been looked at against this backdrop (Emotions and International Law 2011). Recently, Martha Minow has stressed the impact of emotions in legal procedures redressing mass violence (Minow and Rosenblum 2002; Minow 2004). Aside from these rare pioneering studies, historical scholarship (at least in Germany) has seldom systematically addressed the affiliation between emotions and law and refers to it only en passant. To overcome this desideratum, this special issue will explicitly conceptualize the many-sided relationship in order to understand how and where law and emotions were connected and what this means for the historical development of legal cultures and juridical practices. It thereby sheds light on the intricate as yet unanalyzed ways in which emotions help to structure legal cultures. Additionally, this point of view allows the study of the relation between law and emotions in specific settings and contexts. 3 Ellerbrock and Kesper-Biermann, Introduction InterDisciplines 2 (2015) To exemplify that, the special issue brings together seven case studies from 19th and 20th century European history, including colonial history. These papers highlight the potential of studying the past to conceptual- ize, on the one hand, the relationship between law and concepts of emotions and add, on the other hand, important previously neglected

  • When Fear Is Substituted for Reason: European and Western Government Policies Regarding National Security 1789-1919
    WHEN FEAR IS SUBSTITUTED FOR REASON: EUROPEAN AND WESTERN GOVERNMENT POLICIES REGARDING NATIONAL SECURITY 1789-1919 Norma Lisa Flores A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December 2012 Committee: Dr. Beth Griech-Polelle, Advisor Dr. Mark Simon Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Michael Brooks Dr. Geoff Howes Dr. Michael Jakobson © 2012 Norma Lisa Flores All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Beth Griech-Polelle, Advisor Although the twentieth century is perceived as the era of international wars and revolutions, the basis of these proceedings are actually rooted in the events of the nineteenth century. When anything that challenged the authority of the state – concepts based on enlightenment, immigration, or socialism – were deemed to be a threat to the status quo and immediately eliminated by way of legal restrictions. Once the façade of the Old World was completely severed following the Great War, nations in Europe and throughout the West started to revive various nineteenth century laws in an attempt to suppress the outbreak of radicalism that preceded the 1919 revolutions. What this dissertation offers is an extended understanding of how nineteenth century government policies toward radicalism fostered an environment of increased national security during Germany’s 1919 Spartacist Uprising and the 1919/1920 Palmer Raids in the United States. Using the French Revolution as a starting point, this study allows the reader the opportunity to put events like the 1848 revolutions, the rise of the First and Second Internationals, political fallouts, nineteenth century imperialism, nativism, Social Darwinism, and movements for self-government into a broader historical context.

As the fortunes of war shifted, so did borders, populations and national allegiances. In a period of acute and almost constant political crisis, the German government faced issues concerning citizenship, minority rights, religious identity, nationhood and statehood. My dissertation analyses these issues through the prism of the so-called 'Jewish Question'.

  • The Germans: "An Antisemitic People” the Press Campaign After 9 November 1938 Herbert Obenhaus
    The Germans: "An Antisemitic People” The Press Campaign After 9 November 1938 Herbert Obenhaus The pogrom of 9-10 November 1938 gave rise to a variety of tactical and strategic considerations by the German government and National Socialist party offices. The discussions that took place in the Ministry of Propaganda - which in some respects played a pivotal role in the events, due largely to its minister, Josef Goebbels - were of particular significance. On the one hand, the ministry was obliged to document the "wrath of the people" following the assassination of Ernst vom Rath; on the other hand, it was also responsible for manipulating the population by influencing the press and molding opinion. Concerning the events themselves, the main issue was what kind of picture the press was conveying to both a national and an international readership. In the ministry, this prompted several questions: Could it be satisfied with the reactions of the population to vom Rath's murder? What explanation could be given for the people's obvious distance to the events surrounding 9 November? Should the press make greater efforts to influence the opinions prevalent among the population? Should special strategies for the press be developed and pursued after 9 November 1938? Moreover, since the pogrom proved to be a turning point in the regime's policies towards German Jews and marked the beginning of a qualitative change, how should the press react to these changes ? Press activity was also conducted on a second level, that of the NSDAP, which had its own press service, the Nationalsozialistische Partei- Korrespondenz (NSK).1 As was the case with Goebbels' ministry, the 1 It was published in 1938 with the publisher's information, "Commissioned by Wilhelm Weiss responsible for the reports from the Reichspressestelle: Dr.

Although the First World War was over, Germany began a new and violent chapter as an outbreak of civil war threatened to tear the country apart. The birth of the Weimar Republic, Germany’s first democratic government, did not begin smoothly as republican institutions failed to re-establish centralized political and military authority in the wake of the collapse of the imperial regime. Coupled with painful aftershocks from defeat in the Great War, the immediate postwar era had only one consistent force shaping and guiding political and cultural life: violence.

    Rosenblum, Serene justitia InterDisciplines 2 (2015) Serene justitia and the passions of the public sphere Warren Rosenblum »Tear away the false blindfold from this figure of Justice! We no longer have any justice.« ——Kurt Tucholsky, »Prozess Harden« (1922)1 In 1907, the German Ministry of Justice decreed that Justitia—the allegorical representation of justice—should no longer be blindfolded. The order applied to statues and reliefs of the goddess that decorated new courthouses. The Ministry offered no explanation. While most Germans probably never heard of this decree, they almost certainly observed its effects. In the Wilhelmine era, Germany was in the midst of a courthouse building spree. In Berlin alone, nine court buildings were completed between 1901 and 1907, many adorned with a blindfolded Justitia. Construction continued apace in other Prussian cities after 1907. For the editors of the Deutsche Juristenzeitung (DJZ)—whose masthead featured the goddess—the Ministry’s decision was distressing. »What is next?« asked the author of a regular legal news column. »Will they take away her sword and scales, or perhaps ban her altogether from the courts?« (Stranz 1907, 1130). Clearly, something larger was at stake than just a question of decorative style. 1 Reprinted in Gesammelte Werke, vol. 3, 296–304. All translations are mine unless otherwise noted.

  • Conservative Parties and the Birth of Democracy
    Conservative Parties and the Birth of Democracy How do democracies form and what makes them die? Daniel Ziblatt revisits this timely and classic question in a wide-ranging historical narrative that traces the evolution of modern political democracy in Europe from its modest beginnings in 1830s Britain to Adolf Hitler’s 1933 seizure of power in Weimar Germany. Based on rich historical and quantitative evidence, the book offers a major reinterpretation of European history and the question of how stable political democracy is achieved. The barriers to inclusive political rule, Ziblatt finds, were not inevitably overcome by unstoppable tides of socioeconomic change, a simple triumph of a growing middle class, or even by working class collective action. Instead, political democracy’s fate surprisingly hinged on how conservative political parties – the historical defenders of power, wealth, and privilege – recast themselves and coped with the rise of their own radical right. With striking modern parallels, the book has vital implications for today’s new and old democracies under siege. Daniel Ziblatt is Professor of Government at Harvard University where he is also a resident fellow of the Minda de Gunzburg Center for European Studies. He is also currently Fernand Braudel Senior Fellow at the European University Institute. His first book, Structuring the State: The Formation of Italy and Germany and the Puzzle of Federalism (2006) received several prizes from the American Political Science Association. He has written extensively on the emergence of democracy in European political history, publishing in journals such as American Political Science Review, Journal of Economic History, and World Politics.
